Herstelling Raiders Football Club recorded their first win of the Ministry
Herstelling Raiders Football Club, Under-11 team.
of Culture Youth and Sport sponsored East Bank Football Association (EBFA) Under-11 Pee Wee League, a 1-0 win over the previously unbeaten Grove Hi Tech yesterday at the Grove Playfield.
In the eagerly anticipated clash, the Herstelling lads who dominated much of the encounter, left it late to seal full points, Shoran James netting the winner in the 29th minute of the contest. Grove was awarded a penalty midway through the second half but the shot taken by their Captain Devon Padmore was saved by the lone female of the tournament, Indira Winter.
Winter’s heroics paved the way for her side’s eventual win which was formalized with James’ goal in the penultimate minute of the match.
Grove is stalled on 6 points from three games with Herstelling moving to 3 from two matches. Yesterday’s supporting game ended in a 0-0 stalemate between Craig Primary and Agricola Red Triangle.
Diamond United (red) and Mocha Champs in action.
Both teams played well and while Craig had the bigger of the players in terms of size, Agricola never allowed them to impose their will as they were very aggressive with their goalkeeper, Christopher Adams pulling off a few big saves to help earn his side an even share of the spoils.
The day’s opening clash saw Diamond United defeating Mocha Champs by the lone goal of the game which came off the boot of Andy Gray in the 28th minute. Mocha, playing in their first game of the league looked a good unit but it was the more active Diamond side that gained the edge to record their first win of the competition which will continue this Saturday at the same venue.
